Is BangFit The Ultimate Sex Workout?

Did PornHub Just Invent The Ultimate Sex Workout?

With summer just around the corner, you want to get in shape.The sun's out and you're showing off your biceps. But what about your gut? It's never a pretty sight when you see it hanging over your belt. The obvious way to get rid of it is to hit the gym and modify your diet. But not everyone can do that.

You might be too busy to go the gym or can't afford a membership. Perhaps you don't have a gym buddy and are finding it hard to stay motivated. So how do you get in shape without spending a dime or hitting the gym? Well, PornHub might have just invented the ultimate workout — and it's called BangFit.

Yes, you might have guessed what it's all about already. Basically, you can lose weight and get in shape by having sex. Sounds good so far — Who doesn't love sex, right? If you're wondering how this works, just watch the video above where our hosts, Dr. Patrick Owen and Briannah Donolo, break down the concept.

To get on the BangFit program, you'll first need to download the app on your smartphone. You will find a full list of sexy exercises you can do with a partner or two. And just like in your favourite video game — think more Guitar Hero than WOW — you'll have to keep up with the rhythm being displayed.

It might seem like a prank, but the benefits of sex can be very real. While sex might not be the most calorie-intensive workout you can do, you will still be burning around 50 calories every 10 minutes — not too shabby! But the main benefits of sex come from positive hormonal and health effects such as a boosted immune system, a decreased risk of prostate cancer and a decrease in overall blood pressure. Intercourse can also help reduce stress and pain while boosting your libido and improving your sleep. Seriously, having sex is really good for your body so "sexercise" is clearly a winner.

That being said, you should remember that while sex is a moderately-intense workout that has a whole array of health benefits, it still shouldn't be your main form of exercise. If your goal is to lose weight and get in shape, there are still far more effective exercises you could be doing — although we can't promise they will be as much fun.
